Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

Chapter 660: Dried leading fish

Xiaoxiao said sourly, "It's really lucky to have a sister, and there are four of them. When I come back from the Chinese New Year, I can't carry pig's feet, those who buy meat buy meat, those who hold wine hold wine, and those who hold cigarettes hold cigarettes? "

   "Must be!" Ah Zheng raised his feet proudly and kept shaking.

   "It's too little," Ye Yaodong said seriously, "It happens that I plan to take another cart of dried fish to the city in the early morning, so you can go with me at night. It just so happens that you haven't been out to sea for the past two days."

   "Okay, yes, just let me take a ride. If there is a delivery when I come back, I will pay for the freight."

  Ye Yaodong nodded, "We'll talk about that later."

  At this moment, a shout sounded outside, "Ye Yaodong is on the phone, Ye Yaodong is on the phone~"

  Everyone turned their heads to look at the door, Ye Yaodong also stood up, looked at Ah Qing, "I guess the old man called, I'll go and pick it up."

   "Then we'll go back too, it's fine anyway."

   "Wait, your house is empty, and our house has hundreds of catties of dried fish, do you want to send it over?" Xiao Xiao asked.

A Guang also said: "Yes, my family's two boats were caught there, and they were hundreds of catties in the sun. They piled up more than you, and the house is small. I almost have no place to stay, and I am worried about the rain. , I'll just pull it over for you later? It doesn't matter if it's money or not, it doesn't matter if I give it later, I'm just worried that it will be damaged if it rains."

"It shouldn't be raining, right? Aren't you still drying the dried fish outside? When it's all dried and collected, I'll send it over in one piece? My house is vacated because I plan to get your father and friend Uncle Zheng's several thousand catties of dried dragon head fish." I have already agreed to accept one piece, but because there is no place to put it, it has been delayed for several days without weighing it, which is really embarrassing.”

   "Ah, that's true, it needs to be weighed first."

   "So yours will be stored for two days first. I weighed the several thousand catties of dried dragon head fish in the afternoon, and sent them to the city in batches in these two days, and then I will make room to collect yours."

   "That's fine, bless the rain these few days..."

   "You crow with a rotten mouth..."

  Ah Guang also slapped his own stinking mouth, saying that it was not good, and even said it was raining. Now what they are most afraid of is raining, and everyone in the house is piled up with dried fish, which is all money.

   "Then Dongzi, that's the deal, I'll go with you at night, what time?"

   "It's 12 o'clock, right? The morning market is also open when you get there. If you want to buy a few thousand catties of fish, you have to pick it up early. Remember to bring more money."

"OK."

   They walked out while talking.

  The folks who gathered there before the gate of the courtyard have all dispersed, and there is no one at the gate, only the nearby neighbors are still sitting in twos and threes, killing fish and sorting shells.

   His two elder brothers and sister-in-law next door were also busy there, and his father and the old lady also moved a stool to sit there to help.

  He answered the phone in a hurry, said hello to a few friends, got on his bicycle and left first.

   The phone call was undoubtedly from Father Lin, and he was talking about renting a house.

  The village chief came this morning and said that he could temporarily rent out an old house of his own. The old man in the family is getting old and it is not convenient to live alone. He planned to take care of him and just vacated the house.

  It is also a single family. There is a stove in the house, and there is a shared well in front of the house. Father Lin has also visited it, and thinks it is suitable and convenient. Just move the bed and daily necessities there.

  Ye Yaodong also told him that he would set off for the city at night, and then go to have a look at it at dawn, and rent it if there is no problem, at least it will be safer and more convenient to live in a nearby village.

  After hanging up the phone, he also felt relieved, and he was able to solve another matter immediately.

  When the store becomes vacant, he can also bring more dried fish and send it there, and he can also have a place to stock up in large quantities.

  Just after lunch at noon, Uncle Pei’s friend brought over a cart full of dried dragon head fish. The sacks stacked on the cart were taller than a person, and they were **** with ropes for fear that they would fall when pushed.

  Finally able to kill several thousand catties of dragon head fish, Uncle Pei's friend was also very happy, with a joyful smile on his face all the time.

  After he finished pushing a cart, he first unloaded it in the yard, and then asked his son to push the cart back to continue transporting. He stayed here to weigh the goods first.

   It happened that father Ye also had lunch here at noon, and after the meal, the father and son were busy weighing and carrying the goods together.

  From the day when the sun was shining, I was busy until after three o'clock, when the sun hid in the clouds, I weighed all the dried dragon head fish in their house and moved them into the house.

  Ye Yaodong panted with his hands on his hips. It had been two days and he was still sweating. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked Lin Xiuqing.

   "How many catties in total? Have you figured it out?"

   "Not yet, I'm counting, not so fast, wait a minute, it will be slower without the abacus."

   While waiting, Ye Yaodong exchanged a few words with Uncle Pei's friend.

"Sit down and wait, Uncle, your more than 30,000 catties of faucet fish are quite a few catties, and it is estimated that it will not be less than 4,000 catties. It is not so fast for my wife to add the numbers one by one. Wait, sit and rest." a little while."

"Okay, it's okay, as long as I can weigh these dried fish earlier, otherwise, my heart will always be there. When I piled them up at home, I covered them tightly with nylon bags, for fear that the rain would destroy the dried fish. Dried up."

   "Yes, yes, this is my problem. There are too many piles at home. I have been busy going to sea some time ago, and I didn't airlift them away. Weighed today, and you can sleep well at night."

   "Hehe, you can really make money. This is fishing and opening a shop."

   "I can't do it alone. Fortunately, I have my father and my father-in-law to help. One will go to sea with me, and the other will help me look at the shop. Otherwise, I can't do anything. The brat..."

  Ye Yaodong generously pulled out both fathers and praised them. Father Ye listened with great satisfaction.

   "By the way, Uncle, I think your boat is quite big. You must not be like a giant dragon when you go out to sea to haul nets. A net can drag a thousand catties, right?"

   "It's more than that. This boat is big and can run a little farther. The equipment on board is also complete. A net can be dragged up to 2,000 catties. It's all miscellaneous goods, valuable or not. You have to try your luck."

   "Then how long have you been buying it? Did you get back your money?"

  Ye Yaodong is really curious. After all, he is also the one who is about to own a large ship. He has only heard about the resources these years, and has not sailed to farther seas to experience it.

  I just went to have a look a few days ago, and I didn’t have time to ask in detail. Today, I caught the spare time and just inquired about it.

   "I just bought it last year. I partnered with two friends. I originally wanted you, Uncle Pei, to join us. But he bought a smaller one by himself, so he didn't want to join us."

   "Uncle Pei bought a boat last year. He said he wanted to go to Shenjiamen to shop for shrimp skins. Did he plan to go with you?"

"Yeah, whoops, it's a good thing he didn't go. We didn't earn as much as he hauled nets at home. He can buy a second boat, and we haven't paid off our debts. We won't leave this year. Just trawl at home."

  Father Ye also asked curiously: "Old Zheng, how much did you pay for that boat? How much did you earn last year? Is there any calculation?"

"We asked someone to find a fishery brigade to buy it. It's still cheap. It only costs more than 8,000 for a 26-meter-long one. It's about 1/3 of the income. The main reason is that the cost of going outside is too high, and it also costs money to hire people. It’s a lot of money, and you still have to pay wages and eat and drink when you’re out in the weather, and you don’t work, which is amazing, and sometimes you can’t work for a few days a month.”

  Ye Yaodong and Father Ye also nodded in agreement, just like they go fishing for jellyfish, they invite people to go out on a boat, whether there is weather or not, and whether there is work or not, they have to pay.

   They are also lucky, and there are not many rainy days. However, in autumn and winter, the wind blows too often.

Uncle Zheng said again: "Besides, it costs a lot of money to go back and forth for a long trip. But it's okay, everything is safe and sound, and this is enough. Money, earn it slowly. It's better to fish at home. Less, it's not so easy outside, so we grit our teeth and we're back again."

   "Yes, I'm also familiar with the sea area at home."

   "I heard that the first Mazu temple in the village is almost finished. I will also invite a small statue of Mazu to board the boat for safety. I don't know if it is too late to donate money? It is almost the day of the beam..."

   "It's too late, Mazu's miniature can be invited at any time. When Mazu's birthday is on March 23 next month, uncle can also go to Mazu's temple to have a feast and have a safe meal. Everyone is going smoothly this year and making a lot of money smoothly."

Uncle Zheng nodded happily, "I must go to the banquet. It is rare that there is such a big Mazu Temple built in the village, and the entire county is the only one. I heard that it is your credit. The first name on the merit tablet is engraved with your name." of."

   "Haha, I was also lucky. I got a big tripod, and I happened to use the tripod to replace it with a Mazu temple to rebuild, and it would also benefit the village. Otherwise, it would be nothing."

"Yes, it's all handed in anyway, so I can get more benefits anyway. My friend's new ship is about to be built, and he even asked me to help him reserve a few more seats at that time. I'm afraid it will be too late. When the time comes There is no place to sit, and I heard that people everywhere come to make reservations, so it will be very lively.”

   "Sure enough, everyone who is a sea knows everyone who is a sea." Father Ye said jokingly.

"Yeah, we all live by the sea, can we still know the officials? Hahaha, without this life, the boat my friend built is not small, also 26 meters long, and the boat technology is better than my broken boat Too much, expensive is really expensive, and you get what you pay for..."

  Ye Yaodong’s heart skipped a beat. This is a new boat, and it’s 26 meters long. Could it be the 26-meter boat being built by the shipyard he ordered in the county?

   "Uncle, is there a maritime radio station installed on his boat?"

   "That's right, if such a big ship goes deep into the sea, it's better to install a marine radio station to be safer, and it's convenient to contact the fresh-collecting ship..."

   Eyes hurt, no more eye drops, the new ones haven’t arrived yet, I’m going to bed, I’ll fill them up tomorrow
